Need to know if correct/incorrect and what the correct answer is.

QUESTION 2 What statement is most correct about thermodynamic equilibrium at constant T and P? O A biological system will attempt to adjust until the Helmholtz free energy, A, is equal in all compartments. • A biological system will attempt to adjust until the chemical potential, p, is equal in all compartments. O A biological system will attempt to adjust until the entropy, S, is equal in all compartments. O A biological system will attempt to adjust until the internal energy, U, is equal in all compartments. QUESTION 3 Which of the following compounds do you expect to have the largest constant pressure molar heat capacity, cp, at standard temperature and pressure ? O Hydrogen gas O H20 (Water) O Ethanol • Glycylglyclyglycine (tripeptide, Gly-Gly-Gly)

Explanation / Answer

Answer-2

For giving a more general idea of equilibrium we must use chemical potential.

Because Helmholtz energy will be equal to the chemical potential but only in closed system.

And Gibb's free energy applicable only in the open system

So best answer will be chemical potential because chemical potential is equal for all the compartments.

Most important thing is that total sum of the chemical potentiala is zero.

So the biological system will attempt to adjust till the chemical potential.
